"If God is sovereign, then his lordship must extend over all of life, and it cannot be restricted to the walls of the church or within the Christian orbit."

Wordle of Kuyper's Lectures Ch 2

This is a 'wordle' of Abraham Kuyper's Lectures on Calvinism Ch 2 "Calvinism as religion". The size of the word is proportional to its use.

The usual words are large: God, religion, church, human, Calvinism, Christ.Interestingly, so too are: life, earth, world. This shows Kuyper's concern for a worldy (in the right sense) form of Christianity. One surprise is that the word 'must' gets a lot of mentions. This is perhaps indicative of Kuypers' rhetorical style.
